I don't recall complaining much about in-store events but just so we're clear, I only responded because it was my first time seeing this Meloetta event.
The only real problem I have, is actually trying to get to Gamestop.
It's not like there's a Gamestop right outside my window, I mean if all else fails, I could go for a 30 minute/ hour walk depending on how long it would actually take me to get there, of course walking there is extremely hazardous.
But I suppose it could be worse, it could be a few hours away with a car.
Can't promote merchandise and sales over Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi distributions were never intended to replace in-store events, merely to supplement them.
I don't see your point unless you honestly believe people care to buy other games, even though most of them likely only came for the event Pokémon, making any other game purchases a lower priority.
Conclusion: no one, ever, anywhere, will ever be happy and the complaining will never stop.
I guess but I do like the idea of both Wifi and in-store event but I guess, yes, I can see why that would never be a problem.
People should stop complaining about the event being at Gamestop and should just be glad we're getting one. They gave us freaking WiFi trading for a reason.
Yeah, I prefer to get a free Pokémon, from an event, than have to satisfy some person's "need" for a particular Pokémon just to get an event Pokémon.
I'd rather go out of my way and have a specific Pokémon, for shiny Pokémon, since they are a lot more rare.
